Since the place is located on the Dominion Republic's East coast, if one looks to indulge in activities like whale watching or surfing, the rougher ocean might be a better alternative than the warmer, soother sea. Visitors must also research well about the hotel they are planning to book for their stay. Many times a hotel may list their location as Punta Cana, but the towns of Cap Cana, Uvero Alto, Cabeza de Toro, Arena Gorda, El Cortecito, Bavaro and Macao are also considered being a part of the destination.

When packing for the vacation, care should be taken that casual clothes must be packed. Since the destination is quite laid back, clothes like tank tops, jeans, T-shirts, shorts and skirts would be best. For balmy summers, sundresses or khaki shorts are best. When enjoying beach activities, swimming gear, like bikinis or swimming trunks are suitable. Flip flops or sandals are best to roam around the city. There are some places where one may require sturdy sandals, or comfortable shoes for walking in rocky areas.
